To solve problems concerning number lines, you have to note the following;

- Greater than (>) is represented by a small circle (not shaded) with an arrow pointing to the right.

- less than (<) is represented by a small circle (not shaded) with an arrow pointing to the left.

- less than or equal to (=) is represented by a small circle ( shaded) with an arrow pointing to the left.

- greater than or equal to (>/=) is represented by a small circle ( shaded) with an arrow pointing to the right.

Using the above rule to solve the problem;


n>0

You need to first of all locate 0 on the number line.

Then since the sign between them is greater than (>), the according to the given rule, It will be represented by a small circle (not shaded) on 0 with an arrow pointing to the right.

So, we have;
